In 1978, Congress created the Endangered Species Committee, giving it the authority to loosen protections laid out in the 1973 Endangered Species Act under extraordinary circumstances.
Now, Pete Hegseth and Doug Burgum actually believe it’s their right to “play God” with endangered species.

THIS is why Democrats are refusing to give one more penny to ICE. The agency should be abolished altogether—or completely overhauled at the very least.
Just as importantly, the people who orchestrated this terror campaign must be held fully accountable (looking at you, Stephen Miller).
#AbolishICE
Per @deportationdata.org, of the 192 people ICE detained during Operation Catch of the Day, only 11 had a past conviction.
FIVE of them were for misdemeanors.
ICE isn’t just going after the “worst of the worst.” They want to deport as many people as possible—no matter how much trauma they inflict.
Across the country, trans people are under attack. They need our support more than ever.
On this Trans Day of Visibility, let us recommit to fighting for trans rights, calling out hatred and injustice, and celebrating the courage, joy, love, and resilience that exemplify this beautiful community.
Alexander Morse was one of the biggest advocates for the “separate but equal” doctrine that came to define the Jim Crow South. He literally fought to protect the institution of slavery.
If SCOTUS has any legitimacy left at all, it'll reject the Admin's absurd attempts to overturn this landmark law.
SCOTUS will hear arguments in a case that could determine the fate of birthright citizenship.
The Administration wants to overturn it, allowing them to deport hundreds of thousands of people.
They're relying on the writings of a Confederate officer and white supremacist to support their arguments.
Trump promised to lower costs on Day One. Fourteen months later, his tariffs are driving prices up, his war is driving prices up, and his brutal cuts to health care and food assistance will make life even harder for working people.
This administration has been a disaster for Maine families.
Mainers aren’t just paying more at the pump. They’re also staring down heating oil prices above $5 a gallon.
With cold nights still hanging on and no sign prices will come down, Trump’s disastrous war is already hitting us where it hurts.
The longer it drags on, the more pain families will feel.
This is why we just saw the largest protests in U.S. history: People are sick of this president playing by a different set of rules than everyone else—from using his office to enrich himself and his family to eroding trust in the very elections that put him in power.
#NoKings. Not now, not ever.
After weeks of ranting about mail-in ballots, as he tried to sell the most egregious voter suppression bill in generations, what did Trump do?
Mailed in his ballot to vote in Florida*. Despite LITERALLY BEING IN PALM BEACH!
The hypocrisy is astonishing.
(*His hand-picked candidate lost, btw.)
Incredibly proud of how big Maine turned out today for #NoKings. I so wish I could have joined you.
The fight continues and please know - you ARE making a difference!
Thanks to this ridiculous Republican circus, I couldn’t make it back in time for #NoKings. But I’m so proud of all the Mainers out their making their voices heard and standing up to Trump and his disastrous Administration.
Headed home after Republicans rammed through a 60-day CR that gives ICE even MORE power.
It has NO chance of passing the Senate. They sent everyone home anyway.
Bullshit. We should've stayed to pass a bill that fully pays TSA, FEMA, and Coast Guard employees—and doesn’t give another penny to ICE.
They care more about protecting ICE (which is already funded through 2029!) than paying workers and serving the public.
TSA officers, travelers, and families across the country are stuck with the consequences of Republican cowardice and cruelty.
House Republicans had a bipartisan deal in front of them that would have paid TSA workers and ended the shutdown chaos.
They rejected it, passed a pointless 60-day CR they know will fail in the Senate, and skipped town for a two-week recess.
Let me get this straight: Republicans want to blow up the DHS deal (passed unanimously in the Senate) that would fund TSA, FEMA, the Coast Guard, etc... so they can pump MORE money into ICE.
ICE is funded through the Big Ugly Bill! They're getting paid!
A 60-day CR is a non-starter. They know it.
Update from D.C.:
Overnight, the Senate passed a bill that would fund the vital parts of DHS, like TSA, the Coast Guard, FEMA, and cybersecurity professionals without handing ICE and CBP a blank check.
Now, the House needs to get this passed. We’ll see if Republicans can get out of their own way.
The damage being done by Trump and his enablers—to our military, to our alliances, to our reputation, and to our own national security—is incalculable.
AND they want another $200 billion of taxpayer money to keep this war going!
HELL NO!
Diverting military aid from Ukraine—a country that’s been under assault by Russia for 4 years—to an unpopular and disastrous war? Reckless doesn’t even begin to describe it.
Once again, their incompetence is on full display.
And who benefits? RUSSIA. The same country that’s feeding intel to Iran.
